'CRASH!!!'
"Aaah!!" I exclaimed as I woke up in fright.
"I wonder what that was, I should probably see what happened and check if everyone is okay"

I got out of bed and tip-toed to the door and put my ear to it to listen through it.

We need to hurry, pack up your essentials and run for the woods or summon Storm." He explains to me and as I take all this in, I start to realize... That this is all my fault.
"No! I want to fight, I caused all this trouble and I am going to fix it.

I marched slowly down the stairs and told Penelope to open a hole through the barrier.
